July

In July I enjoyed a week with my two best nieces. They are wonderful girls, full of energy and always up for something creative. We immediately installed a blanket fort in the main bedroom


created a terrarium for random found turtles (and got a bad case of chiggers in the process)

hunted rocks (and made quite a splash!)

then painted them with elaborate scenes...(miniatures courtesy of the local thrift store)




played with buttons


admired a giant moth

and a teensy inchworm

and relaxed with some very chilly homemade blackberry icecream.


It was wonderful!
